possible failure in new debian package 0.10.1

I today upgraded my couchdb installation from 0.10.0 to 0.10.1 by simply
executing "apt-get upgrade".
After a restart last hour couchdb don't want to start anymore, so I decided
to do a fresh installation of debian with couchdb on my test system.
>> fresh installation of debian (testing)
>> apt-get install couchdb
>> changed "bind_address" to 0.0.0.0
>> cochdb -d
>> couchdb -b

Couchdb (Futon) don't want to start.

Somebody knows why couchdb or futon don't startup and provide some help?

When you install CouchDB it is started automatically by the system. The error message you are getting here is indicating that there is already a daemon running and listening on that port. If you want to control the system wide CouchDB, you need to use /etc/init.d/couchdb [start|stop] like in the README file. You could also read /usr/share/doc/couchdb/README.Debian for more information.

Because your system log is giving you this message, it is possible that then you installed the package and it tried to start a system CouchDB daemon, it was unable to because of some other CouchDB instance running. If you're new to using "ps", "grep", and "kill" to weed processes out, I would recommend you reboot your machine.
